Don’t screw over small indie devs.

That’s true, but it’s also possible to release apps individually on mobile similar to PC releases.
We also currently get the worst of both worlds with stuff like Goodnotes. They had a one-time buy, but currently they’ve injected AI-related nonsense into v6. They allow owners of the previous version to still use v6, but it’s extremely crippled and functionally worse than 4 or 5. Constant nagging about the new version and features. V6 fully replaced v5 on the App Store, so we can’t do anything about it now. Even in my purchase history, my purchase was forcibly “upgraded.”
What I paid for was a digital notebook app that I could write down notes on with my Apple Pencil and iPad. It had a few nice features I didn’t really need, but were nice to have like writing-to-text replacement. It had cloud backups, but they were through iCloud or OneDrive on the user’s individual storage so I’m assuming it didn’t add a monthly cost overhead to the developer.
Now it’s a subscription model app with features I don’t want nor need that completely replaced the app I paid for.
I’m not smart enough to know, but that doesn’t seem like it’s enough to actually provide a person all their oxygen.
Any biologists here?
Any app that doesn’t require any backend to function.
If you ask for a subscription for an app without the need to support a backend… I won’t subscribe. I’ll find something else.
Mostly anything else is fine.
Though, if it’s something like a Note-Taking app where the cloud infrastructure for backups and sharing would cost pennies and you’re asking more than $1 a month, I’m out. Looking at you, Evernote. $64 a year to replace the built-in Notes app? No thanks.
One of my favorite games ever released, no joke.
If King’s Field looked interesting, but too slow and boring… then this game is actually perfect for you.
I’d work in my sleep if all these conditions are met:
It replaces my 9-5 completely.
I am still fully rested after waking, or at the very least no meaningful difference to my sleep health.
I wake up and don’t remember anything.
I’d like to see how this compares to other solutions like Virtual Desktop. If it’s more performative, I’ll go for it. I can’t imagine there will be a big difference.
I have never been a huge fan of the combat for the series. I put 2 hours into 2, 20 hours into 3. It’s just too slow for me due to how it prioritizes animation.
I definitely prefer more responsive combat over fancy animations. I don’t expect 4 to do that, I’m not really the target audience.
If it does, I’d love to give it a shot.
Fair.
We overestimate what most people do with their computers.
Most people that buy one never touch the re-installation of the OS. I wouldn’t be surprised if I learned 99% of PC users haven’t even done it once.
People buy a PC and use whatever it comes with. They don’t uninstall bloat. They might use a different browser. And then they’ll stick with it until they’re done with it.
It requires knowledge to use different Operating Systems. Most people either don’t have the time or don’t care to learn it. I can’t say I blame them, I never cared to learn about my car. I don’t ever really want to! Yet, I use it every day.
“they” is fine to use for any individual or group as a catch-all.
Let’s make each month 73 days.
5 months. We can figure out a season for each one!
And pay less than half as much rent!
People that disrespect others time are not friends of mine.
I don’t care what level of important any person puts on something they planned. Show up on time or don’t make a promise at all.
That’s why I never explicitly said it should have both.
I was really excited about Favorites in the Music app… until I learned it’s just replacing “Loved.”
I thought they’d have a third type of system:
Favorites / Suggest More (Love) / Suggest Less
It’s sort of like that now, but it’s:
Favorites (Loved) / Suggest More (Added to Library) / Suggest Less
Oh well!
AI in the terms of Computer Science, of course.
Any chance you could refer me? I’ve been applying for places since January and I graduate in December.
I greatly hope Apple allows us to set the Action Button for: Single tap Double tap Triple tap Long press
And perhaps even custom combinations of taps/presses to allow for greater use.
Limiting us to ONE use from a long press is confusing to me.
It’s cool that people have created shortcuts that can imitate this, but it’s one of those “should be standard” things.
I replace/return maybe 1 out of 10 items ordered from Amazon because stuff arrives faulty, broken, or completely wrong.
They’ve sent me a threatening email about my returns at least once a year. I always reply telling them to stop being shit.
Haven’t had my account deleted yet (since 2011), but I avoid Amazon when I can.
Turok Evolution on GameCube.
It doesn’t look that bad on reviews, but it’s pretty awful.
